I am preparing a modern edition of an 18th century choral/orchestral  
work. The last several movements are in cut time (4/2), four beats to  
a measure, half note gets the beat.

Finale uses a whole rest as the default empty measure rest, but I'm  
not sure if this is preferable, or a double whole rest (which is what  
actually is written by the composer in his autograph score). For a  
modern edition, is standard practice for an empty measure in 4/2 time  
a whole rest or double whole rest?

If the concensus is double whole rest, how does one get the double  
whole rest centered in the empty measures?

Thanks,
Martin
